This park was used as our home base while visiting family. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Road and sites are blacktop and level. We had FHU at our site. Lots of trees so lots of shade. Sites are close together but we didn't mind. Campground is right next to I-90 but after a while you don't notice the traffic anymore. A gold mine tour with gold panning at the west end of the campground. Tour was informative and the kids enjoyed panning. We would definitely stay here again. - Blu1e

Love this little "no frills" park! Clean sites, lots of shade, great proximity to the Coeur d' Lane Bike Trail, and very accommodating owners. We stay there coming and going to Montana, and appreciate it every time. No showers or bathrooms, but we didn't have to pay for amenities we wouldn't be using anyway, and that's much appreciated. - CoffeeSnobs

You WILL get freeway noise if you stay here. However, I would grin and bear it, because the nearby (walking distance) tour of Crystal Mine is well worth the visit ($1 discount if you are a AAA member), and the price of a stay at the RV Park is reasonable. When you check in, they don't even make you fill out a registration form! The price I am showing is after taxes and Good Sam discount. By the way, the Good Sam/AAA discount is only $1. I said "no" to clean restrooms and showers" because...they don't have a bathhouse at this time. The manager told me that building a bathhouse is in the future plans. They mentioned that it would be a "coins needed" type of shower. Most of the sites have decent shade via a lot of trees. The sites are all back-in with a black top paved pad. Plenty of room for slides. You get just the basics here, water, electric, and sewer. Oh, the water hookup is shared. The faucets, which have double spouts on each, are placed every other site so one of you in the "pair" will have the water faucet on the wrong side. Since I was staying one night, I just filled up my tank and operated off that. I have a JACK TV antenna, and I couldn't get a thing on TV. To me, this RV park exists to serve the tourists who stop for the mine tour, so you wouldn't expect any "perms." However, about three of the sites looked like "perms" to me. There were NO signs directing the way to the park. The website says "easy I-90 access." HA! Not really. I had trouble finding it. Here is the scoop: If you are going east, take exit 51. If you are going west, take exit 54. Either way, you will have to get to just barely north of the freeway and travel along Silver Valley Road. (I was headed east, took exit 54 and had to double backward a couple miles.) I'm giving it a 7 because it looks like a cute little campground out in the woods. The mine tour is a MUST! - DXSMac
